The Kanneh-Masons hope to demystify classical music

 The Kanneh-Masons hope to demystify classical music.

The BBC reports that they may be among Britain's most gifted musical siblings, but the Kanneh-Masons insist they are just like any other family.

"We were playing a lot of football over lockdown," says eldest brother, violinist Braimah, 22. "There were a lot of disputes over whether the ball had crossed the line or not. I'd say when we are playing a game that's when the arguments start."

Mariatu, 11, a cellist and pianist, says being the youngest - and the shortest - definitely has its drawbacks, especially in the kitchen at the family home in Nottingham.

"I'm quite small and everyone just barges past me and it's quite stressful sometimes and people always pull me aside by my head which I find annoying."

When they are playing music, however, the classically trained brothers and sisters are, according to sister Isata, 24, "more respectful".

"We slip into a more professional mood," says the pianist who earlier this month made her BBC Proms debut at the Royal Albert Hall.

Now they have come together to record their first album as a family, Carnival, which will be released by their record label Decca on 6 November.

"It felt like a lovely thing to make a recording at the ages that we are now, as a snapshot of where we are at the moment," says cellist Sheku, 21, who played at the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

But there was another reason. They decided they wanted to record Carnival of the Animals, by the French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. The musical suite of movements is dedicated to animals including lions, elephants and fish.

Sheku, who was the first black winner of the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition in 2016, explains why.

"We all grew up listening to albums like Peter and the Wolf (Sergei Prokofiev's symphonic fairy tale) as children. We remembered being so inspired by that and so we wanted to make our version."

New Matt Steady Album Echoes of Albion

New Matt Steady Album Echoes of Albion 


Over the last few years, Leicester’s Matt Steady has emerged as a poster boy of the internet orientated independent music scene, being held up as an inspiration by many music business podcasters. His latest long-player Echoes of Albion is a concept album taking the listener on a bittersweet tour of Britain across time – this is inventive folk rock evoking the sardonic narrative style of The Men They Couldn’t Hang with shades of Roger Waters and Tom Robinson also coming through.

Fay Hield - Wrackline - Out now on Topic Records

 Fay Hield - Wrackline - Out now on Topic Records



Looking at traditional stories involving the ‘otherworld’ of fairies, ghosts and the animal kingdom, Wrackline explores our emotional responses to the space between their reality and our own. Fay is accompanied on the new album by a stellar cast of some of the finest folk musicians working today; Rob Harbron, Sam Sweeney, Ben Nicholls and Ewan MacPherson.

“Wrackline is split into 6 themes, including my interpretations of songs from within the tradition and contemporary responses. It’s my first foray into songwriting but it is firmly within the realms of folk music - drawing heavily on traditions but looking at how they are still relevant for us today. Perhaps in these strange times it’s particularly important to understand how stories can help us make sense of the world around us, both the world we can see and also those darker, less tangible things. In the run-up to the release, I will be sharing blog posts and podcasts which I hope will help you find a way into thinking about the mythical unknown. Maybe hearing how they’ve become important to me, can help you in this time of insecurity, to find some sense and beauty.”  Fay Hield, July 2020
